Olympic gold medalist swimmer Amanda Beard launched her naked, anti-fur campaign poster outside the Athletes' Village on Wednesday.
In a poster for the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), the reigning 200-meter breaststroke champion appears naked in front of the US flag and the slogan "Be comfortable in your own skin. Don't wear fur."
The spokesman for PETA, said the launch was a bit more dramatic than they had planned. Chinese security officials visited a hotel where an official news conference had been scheduled and shut down the event for security concerns.
Finally Beard has to unviel the poster outside the sports village.
